I hope you will clarify this matter, as there has been much discussion about it, which is the ruling on the dark and yellow discharge that comes from a woman after the blood stops.

The questioner : A questioner says: May the Shaykh clarify this matter, as there has been much discussion about it. It is the ruling on the dark and yellow discharge that comes from a woman after the blood stops. When is a woman considered pure? Is the white discharge necessary?
The Shaykh : This is a matter in which the scholars have disagreed. The position that I consider stronger, in my final view, is that the dark and yellow discharge is not considered, except what occurs during menstruation. For example, if a woman’s custom is five days and she sees dark or yellow discharge on the third day, we say: it is part of the menstruation. As for a woman who sees dark or yellow discharge before the blood comes down, this dark and yellow discharge is not considered. And another woman who has become pure from menstruation and the blood has stopped, but the yellow and dark discharge remains—likewise—it has no ruling. Yes.
